Bike shop

[2] Beyond bicycles, a bike shop may offer clothing and other accessories, spare and replacement parts, tools, and a variety of services.

[3] Services may include expert fitting and custom bike building or ordering,[4] maintenance and repairs from experienced bicycle mechanics, and organized group rides and classes.

Shops located out of temperate climates may have a secondary line in order to keep busy in the off season (winter).

Some shops keep their regular customers coming in through the winter by offering group training sessions.

[14] In the US, the primary competitors to local bike shops are the mass merchants such as Walmart or Target, representing 74% of the units sales in 2015 and 32% of dollars spent, chain sporting goods stores representing 6% of the unit sales and 8% of dollars spent, and outdoor speciality retailers representing 3.5% of the unit sales and 8% of dollars spent.
